The company...
You're building a strong wall you're calling.
Darkness is closing in, the battle will soon begin they wait out in a distance.
Do you want to have a voice, do you want to make noise join in the defany the company of sad.
Come on and gather round.
Do you see what I see as we all fall down.
Come on and gather round the enemies has locked me out as it all falls down.
